Apart from the cholesterol busting (coconut milk does not contain cholesterol after all!) rice that is filled with saturated fats that can raise cholesterol levels, i just can’t think of any other reason why would anyone not like this dish. Even my kiddos who don’t take spicy food, love nasi lemak! Hahaaa.. Kinda makes one wonders why they eat it in the first place aye?

Well, for one, they dig the ultra fragrant rice.

Two, they are suckers for the fried ikan bilis (anchovies)!

Three, they like the eggs, the peanuts and cucumber.

So yes, apart from the sambal cili, they really do enjoy nasi lemak whole heartedly. But i’m quite wicked sometimes. Do you know what i usually do?

Hehehehehehe!(uh oh, my evil deed is about to be exposed!!)

I will sometimes, okayyyy, fineeee.. ..most of the time, incorporate some of the sambal cili into their rice without their knowledge! HAhahaahahah!

You know, just a teeeny weeeny bit… hoping they can slowly adapt to the spiciness and not say NO to anything spicy as they grow up. I don’t quite fancy the thought of me being the only person in the family who eats spicy food — Darcy and helper not included. That will be soooo notttt fun!

Importantly, i think a real man eats spicy food, no? :P(my opinion only lahh.. so if you don’t know me, u can jolly well ignore the sentence above ok? no offense intended! ;))
